Check Consumer Product Safety Alerts
Search CPSC recall and safety alerts for consumer products including electronics, toys, furniture, and appliances.
Quick answer: Use the Product Recalls tool through ToolRouter to check consumer product safety alerts directly from Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw — connect once, then drive it with plain-language prompts. No code required.
ToolConsumer product recalls affect millions of units across every product category imaginable — from children's toys with choking hazards to appliances with fire risks to furniture that fails structural testing. The Consumer Product Safety Commission maintains the authoritative database, but checking whether a specific product has been recalled requires knowing exactly where to look and how to search.
Product Recalls searches CPSC safety alerts and returns matching recalls with the hazard description, product description, units affected, and the remedy offered — whether repair, replacement, or refund. The check_product_safety skill runs a deeper safety assessment for a specific item.
Retailers conducting supplier audits, parents checking specific toys or nursery items, and insurance adjusters assessing liability after an incident use this to surface product safety history without navigating government databases.
How to check consumer product safety alerts with Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw
Claude searches CPSC recalls and provides context on the safety risk. It explains what the specific hazard means in practice — whether a toy's small part hazard is relevant to your child's age, whether a furniture tip-over risk applies to your product variant, and what action to take given the specific recall remedy offered.

Search for CPSC recalls for children's furniture and cots issued in the last two years. What hazards were cited, how many units were affected, and what remedies were offered to consumers?
Tips for Claude
- Provide the product model number if available — recalls often affect specific model ranges, not entire product lines
- Ask Claude whether your purchase date falls within the affected production period
- Ask about the remedy process — some recalls require you to contact the manufacturer, others offer refunds through retailers
ChatGPT searches CPSC recall data and explains safety alerts in accessible terms. It describes what the specific hazard means for real-world use, tells you whether the product is still dangerous or whether the risk is addressed, and provides clear instructions on what to do next — making safety information actionable.
